What the Boys Taught Me
Yung-Tuan Ku found inspiration in the novel the book What the Boys Taught Me (2004) from a Taiwanese author, filmmaker, talk show presenter Kang-Yung Tsai. The book contains a series of boys/men collection that he met throughout his life.
This performance reflects on the different situations between men and women, in terms of gender, age, social status, stereotype. With 6 various chapters, using percussion music, mime, film, live analog projection to discuss those most subtle but unforgettable life stories. It’s personal, yet universal. (Text: Yung-Tuan Ku)

“‘Als je jezelf in dergelijke situaties van onderdrukking hebt bevonden en naar dit stuk zou kijken, voel je de empathie’”
